Yorkshire's dual county championship-winning coach Jason Gillespie has confirmed he will be staying at Headingley rather than applying for a management role with his native Australia.

The former Test seamer met his ex-international team-mate and current Australia coach Darren Lehmann socially this week, when the subject of a possible vacancy as a bowling specialist was mentioned.

But Gillespie insists no job offer was made by Cricket Australia, and that the following day he contacted Lehmann to inform him he would not be applying for one if it was.

'He mentioned that there was a role coming up with Australian cricket,' Gillespie told BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra.

'I want to make it very clear there was no job offer from Darren - it was merely gauging interest.'

Gillespie, 41, was strongly linked with England's vacant head coach position last year - a job eventually given to his compatriot Trevor Bayliss, since when England have regained the Ashes in a titanic 2015 series.
